It seems I don't have much to choose from in terms of local availability of 70 inch LCD (or LED) sets. This is important as I want to spend some time viewing the set in store before buying, not to mention the headaches and hassles of dealing with internet-based retailers or B&M retailers in another city if there are any issues with the set once I get it home, etc.
I'm upgrading from a 56 inch JVC DILA set that is showing signs of light engine failure and will also need a new bulb shortly.
The choices available to me are well...Sharp, Sharp, or Sharp LOL
Sharp LC-70LE640U
Sharp LC-70LE632UBD (Costco)
Sharp LC-70LE845U although this is really more than I would want to spend
Sharp LC-70LE847U also more than I'd want to spend
Sharp LC-70C6400U "FutureShop exclusive"
Viewing distance is about 10-12 feet, mainly bluray and HD satellite - I also do some gaming so input lag is a concern, and I tend to be fairly sensitive to other visual "quirks" with displays like screen door effect, DLP "rainbows", LCD blurring, etc. There is some ambient light in the room although I can control this quite well with the drapes I have, and almost all of the viewing positions are directly in line with the center/front of the screen so no extreme viewing angles involved either. I really don't care about 3D, and the home networking/internet stuff I do with the PS3 media server.
Any recommendations?
